cat6 is overkill for 4K streaming, but it’s future proof. I went for cat5e since it was half the cost at the time and most of my equipment is gigabit anyway.
Will I regret “only” having 2.5gbps cables instead of 10gbps? idk. Seems unlikely.

I have yet to make it work well enough over wifi. I am planning on running cat6 down to my tv

But, regardless, yes. Wired is so much better.
Oh absolutely overkill, but I have a reel of it from another project. Waste not, want not.
